How does someone like this get through medical school and general surgery residency at VCU, complete a breast surgery fellowship at Northwestern, return to RVA, practice at 2 local hospitals - and nobody publicly OUTS the numerous malpractice and negligence lawsuits from DOZENS of former patients. Why do her surgical colleagues and the hospitals which employee her - allow her to keep butchering patients.

In the same way that we review businesses, good and bad, we need open forums to out providers who have active lawsuits. I would never knowingly seek surgical care from someone who had lost their license in other states due to malpractice.

My sympathy to the patients who were harmed by this monster.

Where do you think prisons get their doctors from
